Your midterm assignment is to develop and pitch a reality television show. This is a two-part assignment that includes a written portion and a 3 minute pitch.
The written part of your assignment must include the following:
1. Cover page with the title of the show, the show tag line (do not confuse this with the log line), and the show creators name (you).
2. Page two should be your 3-4 sentence longline centered in the middle of the page. It must include all the elements discussed in class (who, what, the drama, the change, the eye grab)
3. A one sheet- this must have all the elements we discussed in class and expand on the 5 elements in the logline.
4. The treatment- this should include all the elements we discussed in class. This section should be no less than three pages and not more than five.
12pt font, times new roman, single-spaced. YOU MUST TURN IN A HARD COPY! I will not accept electronic submissions.
The written portion is due Wednesday 1st March 2017 at the beginning of class- no exceptions
Starting on WEDNSDAY, March 20 you will pitch these ideas to me and the class. Prepare a three-minute pitch about your show and be prepared to answer questions about it.
Please refer to your notes if you have questions about what elements are expected in each section. I will spend two weeks going over each element to be included in your written assignment.
